Nov. 18th, 2004 11:34 pmWill someone make Ellen DeGeneres stop shaking her ass across Yahoo? Seriously. It's starting to get annoying. Especially when she escapes from the little banner ad and shakes her ass all over my inbox. "Move it, Ellen, I'm trying to see if I have any new mail."
Got to play Halo 2 tonight. Fun. Lots of shooting things. Well, shooting in the general direction of things, actually, because my aim is shit, but I made a good effort and got a total of, I think, 4 or 5 kills, which is pretty good for me. And a couple of them were of Mike, and therefore I win. (Zack killed me about 8 times. Whore.)
I made actual progress on making my room not look like a disaster zone today. Did a load of laundry, folded some clean clothes that were lying in a heap on the floor, et cetera. I am quite proud of myself.
Ahhh. So excited not to have Chinese tomorrow. I get to wake up late and study for Latin for a couple hours. So relaxing. Then Monday I have fairly normal classes, and Tuesday I have a physics test and that's all, and then I'm gone for Thanksgiving. Yay. I get a break.
Have I mentioned how deeply and completely I am in love with Milliways? There's something unbelievably entertaining about playing Luke Skywalker... with a bad case of chickenpox... about to move in with his girlfriend... getting The Talk from Han Solo. (Yes, I am a nerd, thank you.)
MOB show for next weekend involves an unseemly amount of running my ass around the field. It's entertaining, though. And I think I kind of can remember where I go in the formations for this one, too. Yay.
The other day I went to Target to get index cards and, of course, foolishly wandered into the DVD section. But oh God, their discount rack. They had The Great Escape! Not the expensive fancy collectors' edition! An el-cheapo-style, less-than-ten-bucks edition!
... Needless to say, now I have The Great Escape. Damn you, Steve McQueen. And damn your stolen Nazi motorcycle, too.
(What is it about Nazi motorcycles? Especially stolen Nazi motorcycles? Why are movies with stolen Nazi motorcycles always so terrific? Well, all right, arguably not terrific, but they always seem to be movies that I'm happy to see. Why?)
